I have apropos media on my notebook (toshiba satellite M45-S331). I have quite a bit of pop ups so I believe this is associated with the
AproposeMedia (People on Page) Spyware/Adware
http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/p...x?id=453077888

I am uncertain if this is related but I have experienced a microsoft visual C++ runtime error. A mysterious folder appears in my program files only after I open the browser. It is C:\PROGRAM FILES\Yahffice
The files contained in the folder are:
Cache folder
AI_04-10-2005 text file
AI_06-10-2005 text file
ace.dll
atl.dll
WinGenerics.dll
an internet explorer logo with "sddupapi"
When I try to shutdown I get several error messages for SDDUPAPI.exe:
DLL Initializtion failed and LEGTVIEW.exe:DLL Initialization failed

I think I may have got rid of the SDDUPAPI.exe and LEGTVIEW.exe as I now get when trying to log off DFSSRVC.exe:DLL Initialization failed and WMETOXCI.exe:DLL Initialization failed

I have run Norton Antivirus, Adaware Se, Microsoft Antispyware, Spybot Search and Destroy, Stinger, Spyware Doctor, Trendmicro Housecall, Hijack this and the HijackThisAnalyzer.
